Ward is playing a hard role on a wing, CMac has been almost non existent all season.

Don’t like Ward playing Box Hill, should be CMac

Hahahah that’s what makes footy fun as a supporter, and the banter that comes with it

I don’t think smashings are fun, I feel like my enjoyment just comes from good footy not specifically hawthorn.

Goodluck Sunday, hopefully it’s not a smashing and both sides can take something out of it despite the result.

Means day and Lewis will be back next week. Gunston has a good record against you lot

No clue mate, rarely on here

It was the only news place that said he was unavailable, 7 did the same story but said he was on light training Wednesday and tested Friday. Media can’t be trusted with a lot of things.

News from the club was a test Friday during our main session.

He has a test Friday. Isn’t ruled out.

Has been playing wing.

Haha! Sheezel is incredible, superb character and player.

Maginness will tag Sheezel, nothing surer.

Mitch Lewis will play if he passes fitness test Friday. Otherwise it’s Ramsden and Chol.

Callum Coleman Jones CHF? Logue CHB? Goater BP? Dawson FB?

They’re important. Since you can get good chemistry as a midfield and capitalise on the dominance, however you can live without it aswell. But that’s a subjective opinion, since I rate tap rucks highly. Because he is like the rest of the side, out of form and not performing to last years...

Last year the forward line was horrible, especially without Lewis. Once he was back and in some form, they played some good footy. Forwardline was a focus this off season with getting in smalls and talls to create a potent attack and capitalise on midfield strength. Midfield has fallen off a...

I agree, just giving the reasons as to why he hasn’t had the opportunity so far. He may get a chance sometime this year but until then I’d be surprised to see him on a list

The ones I mentioned were important, metres gained, inside 50s were due to lack of structure and trust with the link of lines more than anything. Tackles have been poor club wise as a whole and don’t dictate just midfield, and I said why stoppage clearances were so much lower than centre...

Hitouts without using hitout to advantage are, but Ned Reeves was highly rated for his ability to hit to advantage which gave the midfield first usage, any stat is baseless without context.

2nd for disposals avg 5th for hitouts avg 3rd for centre clearances avg & 2nd for centre clearance average differential 7th for clearance average differential Hawthorns strength last year was their ability around clearances especially centre clearances, usually at stoppages they would...

Ins: Hustwaite, Lewis Outs: Nash, Ramsden Back everyone else in and get a response.

Breust, wow. Jiath is good news, give him some time to put some kms in the legs. Bad luck for Reeves. Day would be a week away and I doubt he’d be going to box hill. Jiath, Day could be back next week, Lewis this week or next? Breust back just after with Wingard.

Hustwaite got an opportunity as that type of player, classy and skillful. I believe he replaced Newcombe or Day. Stephens is gunning for Worpel or Nash role as that defensive midfielder who wins clearances. Which he hasn’t been able to, he’d of played a fair chunk of games if he had stayed at...

He’s a freak, I’m enjoying the top rung of talent in the draft this year. A lot of midfielders and a couple nice key position players. But at the top, he, O‘Sullivan types are class.

His point was Stephens has not had the opportunity as our midfield was one of the best performing in the competition last year, and whilst it’s poor this year, performance wise. He has been injured, timing has killed him.

Anyone who’s watched Ward both at 18s, afl and vfl level knows he is quick. He like Mackenzie lacks the confidence in himself but I’ve seen it at all 3 levels. Newcombe’s first 5 metres are on the top level of explosiveness and he’s super strong. Can’t speak on this year, but especially last...

Slow with poor disposal. Newcombe - disposal is good and bad, but he is damaging, definitely not slow, he’s an explosive and strong midfielder. Worpel - disposal is average and he’s not slow but he isn’t super quick, he’s strong enough to burst from a pack. Nash - disposal is poor and he...

He isn’t, Brad is just being lazy with his work.

I’d go Ward into the guts with Hustwaite, Nash and Mackenzie drop out and Jiath plays the wing. Mackenzie earns his stripes back, Ward backed in but has to perform.
